1. What will I start doing?

As you embark on your journey of self-improvement, it’s essential to identify new habits or actions that can enhance your life. Consider what positive changes you can introduce to your routine. This could be anything from practicing mindfulness, exercising regularly, or learning a new skill. By starting new activities, you open doors to personal growth and self-discovery.

2. What will I stop doing?

Sometimes, certain habits or behaviors hold us back from reaching our full potential. Take a moment to reflect on any negative patterns or actions that you want to eliminate from your life. It could be procrastination, self-doubt, or unhealthy relationships. By identifying these obstacles, you can create space for positive change and personal development.

3. What will I continue doing?

Acknowledging your strengths and recognizing the positive aspects of your life are equally important. Reflect on the habits, activities, or relationships that bring you joy, fulfillment, and growth. These could be practicing gratitude, spending time with loved ones, or pursuing a hobby. By continuing these positive aspects, you reinforce your well-being and maintain a sense of purpose.
